No. Mode and median are two different descriptive statistics. The mode is the value that occurs most often. The median is the middle value (the value below which 50 % of the cases lie and above which 50 % of the cases lie). Here is an example. Consider the set of data. 2,3,3,5,5,5,6,8,10 3 occurs most often (3 times), so 3 is the mode. 5 is the median. There are 4 cases below 5 and 4 cases above 5.
